Could someone translate?

  I would say the best translation to English is 'plopped' - it's a sort of whimsical or even comical way of saying it fell in.

  From the context and the word "Bier", "I'd like to grab a beer" perhaps

  "My phone just plopped into the Landwehr Canal." "Hahaha and now what" "Great question" "Now I could use a beer."

  > Geplumpst Basically means something fell or as Google Translate says "flopped" -- however, GP seems to be excited over the apparent onomatopoeia in the word because it evokes the sound of something falling in water. > "Mir ist grad mein handy in den Landwahrkanal geplumpst" This essentially says "My cellphone fell in the canal!" but with the delicious "geplumpst" word sound. > "Jetzt könnte ich ein Bier gebrauchen" This exclaims "I could use a beer now".

  "geplumst" is the funny part here, it's very colloquial, kinda silly-sounding, playful – similar to "plumped". Just makes the whole sentence more delightful.

    it also rhymes with "gebumst" which means "banged" or "fucked"...
